IslandGuru Who payed the critics

WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

antonio-mastandrea Well! I saw the film too, I knew very little about Kenneth Anger, but after seeing "Anger Me", that I found to be a very valuable source of informations, I had finally an idea about who Kenneth Anger is. Anger Me,is described here as a documentary but in truth it's far more than that: it's a long-overdue monologue, an opportunity for the oft-maligned Anger to present his life as he remembers it...it is just a different point of viewMysteryDaring to lift my eyes towards the dry treetops, I don't see God, but his light is immensely shining.

phileroach I saw this so-called film by Elio Gelmini at the Viennale 2006 in presence of the director and the master Mr. Anger himself. The film contains no particularly new information on Kenneth Anger, and only covers up his films and art, but his private life (what could have been interesting) isn't covered at all. But the most disgraceful aspect was that Mr. Anger's face was put in front of a blue-screen, whereas on the blue-screen, clips from his films were shown and generic blue sky videos, which is below the quality of a TV documentary. There was a scene in the beginning where Jonas Mekas is interviewed, in the back was a copyrighted poster, so the director just blurred the parts of the screen so the poster couldn't be seen. The things Yes, Mr. Anger said were interesting, but you can find these informations in any book about him, the film is more of a 71 minute interview, and not a film, the title "Anger Me" doesn't have any meaning at all and makes no sense regarding the master of US avantgarde cinema. Overall a very unsatisfying picture offering nothing new in terms of Kenneth Anger and documentary film-making.
